I heard from a coworker that winter discount rates will come out tomorrow. :bounce: Could this be true or am I getting my hopes up?:( Come on December Discounts...where are you?

The current code can be booked thru Monday July 8. It is highly unlikely that Disney will release a new set of discounts before this one expires. maybe next weekend. I know patience is wearing thin...I am with you.

A CM told me this morning that they won't be out until late July. I have also heard mid-July through the grapevine, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see. :D

When I called today the CM said that usually discounts are released on Mondays...who knows though...we all know that we all get different answers with each CM we talk to. :p

Just talked to CRO/WDTC this afternoon. Checking on my reservations. She mentioned that, according to the comuter, new codes are pending, which she said ment that they would become effective in 2-3 days and these codes would be good from 10/2 to 12/25.

BTW my reservations were screwed up. I had booked a package for early November with airfare. They sent me the paperwork showing that the balance was due on 10/18. This morning, she said that was a mistake and that when airfare is included, the balance due is 45 days - meaning 9/24. Would have gotten a big suprise:( .

This makes me happy! I was unable to book using DC discounts and so this is my last hope of not paying rack rate.

wow, til 12/25! that is awesome news. last year was the first time they had discounts into holiday season (holiday season begins on Dec 19th this year) that would be great if they have discounts again this yr for christmas week.
I know the GF was going for $199 last christmas! we can only hope for such outstanding discounts again :)

But, if I want to book for January, how long will I have to wait for codes??? And, why can't I get rates at disneyworld.com for January? :(

Strange that they release codes on Mondays when they can't take advantage of Sunday travel sections...Dana, January rates may not be available because I don't think Disney has even released the rack rates for 2003. Some of the package rates are out, but not the room only rates. Rack rates should be out soon and I am actually surprised that they aren't. Maybe you could call CRO and see if they have it in the computer and just not on the website yet.

Codes for January will be a long time coming. For January 2002, the codes weren't released until mid December - that's right, only about 2 weeks ahead of time. Don't know if that will happen again, but don't be surprised if it does. Oh, just was corrected. It was AP rates that came out so late. The codes for january were out the first part of November.

Any news on new codes for October-December? I've been dying to see new codes come out!

Me too! I was hoping today would be the day, but it doesn't look good. Anyone know what time of day Mousesavers would post up this info (when it came available)? Thanks!

I just called and the CM told me that the current discounts only go through 9/30/02. Maybe someone else will have better luck than me!

She's already wrong they go through 10.02.02

No, the CM was correct. Annual Pass discounts (which is what I asked about) only go through 9/30/02.

I called too and asked about AP rates. The CM also told me that they only went through 9/30/02.

I like the guess of the 15th, but I wouldn't be surprised if they don't come out until the 22nd. Hope the discounts are as great as they were this last time (would save a good chunk of change). Here's hoping.

I am waiting too. Another early December traveler. I haven't even told my husband there is a possibility of further discount (AAA rate right now) as I don't want him to be disappointed if there are not any. My guess is next Monday will be the best day.

If I recall correctly, the last round of codes were announced on a Sunday, shortly after the current ones expired, which would put us this weekend on the 14th. That would be my guess. Maybe we should start wagering....;)

zulaya

I have consistently maintained that the next code will come out 1-2 weeks after the old code expires. I have seen the codes become available on Sundays, not on Mondays like many Cast Members are telling people.

Whoever keeps calling, keep posting what the CMs say.

Just called CRO again today.... No AP rates yet. :(

I have ressies at CBR 11/27-12/1. My travel agent booked the Delta vacation, which includes Ultimate hopper passes ( I think they're still called that), it was the airfare which was SO high because of the Holiday. If new codes come out, can I get a refund for the difference, if they even apply to me as we will be there on Thanksgiving weekend... I saw a thread saying they just applied the difference to their hotel charge.. that seems like a great idea!!!

139 days left... yea!!
thanks, Jeanny :-):earsgirl:

Hope you all get that "great rate"!!! Also hope that Disney might be very kind and give some discounts for next December! Hope I can get a couple rooms at YC under $200/night each. Wishful thinking, eh?

MJames - thanks for the update! You know we Oct, Nov, Dec travelers are appreciative! Now we can take a break and stop obsessing! Yeah...right. I know I will be waiting impatiently for the 22nd.

where will they be posted for the All Star Movies? I am signed up on Mousesavers which sends me alerts what else can I do?

zulaya
07-15-2002, 07:36 AM
buzz&woody'smom --- the discounts are few and far between for ASMo because it is so popular so I wouldn't necessarily count on getting a discount when they come out.

Here and Mousesaver's are your best bets for seeing that the code will be.

Jeanny
07-15-2002, 04:32 PM
so now hopefully knowing what the codes will be is only a week away....I realize I don't have to hold my breath when I pull the Boston Globe apart looking for them until next Monday...

B3LM
07-15-2002, 04:38 PM
buzz&woody'smom, I'm in the same boat as you. I'm really hoping to be able to get a great discount at AsMo, but realize that it's probably unlikely. That resort usually fills up more quickly than the other two, therefore the discounted rooms aren't available there.

We can only hope, right?!

Does anyone think that we will be able to get a discount code at the CR, tower room, now that SOG are staying there I understand that it is pretty full most of the time.I actually have a ressie there already but hoping to do better when codes come out:D

07-16-2002, 05:35 AM
Thanks MJames41 for the update. Wooohoooo 7/22 for the new codes. That will surely make my day better. Having dental work done on that day so maybe Ill still be on a booking high and not notice the work being done :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:

Would love to have the codes released on the 22nd, since we're going to be out of the country the end of July/early August, when I figures the codes would be available :rolleyes:

Luckily, I've got a great travel agent (from a Disforum post!) who will book exactly what I want when the codes come out!
